The weather is just starting to warm up, the sun is shining across the barn and the outdoor spaces, meaning you can really appreciate the barn for all it has to offer. The flowers are blooming and it still gets cool enough in the evenings to really enjoy the firepits and bonfire outside and even get the fireplace lit inside too really creating those cozy vibes.

Our Story

With its majestic timber structure, romantic Cotswolds views, magical woodland glade and roaring open fires and outdoor fire pits, Cripps Barn provides an idyllic setting for a relaxed, rustic wedding, whatever the season.

Here, guests can spill out into the beautiful grounds, sumptuous feasts are presented on elegant wooden platters and your guests can even camp in the grounds. All this delivered by an expert, on-site wedding team.

Our food looks as impressive as it tastes. Cooked on a giant, hand made rotisserie and a vast, flaming BBQ, our chefs produce classic dishes such as whole, flame-grilled lamb or sirloin bricks and chargrilled vegetables. For those interested in an urban, informal twist, we also produce Street Food feasts with bao buns or award-winning pizzas by Baz & Fred.
